  • overwhelmed...

    Soooo its 1:23AM... and I really should be going to bed in 7 minutes so that I can wake up tomorrow in time for work...  but I feel so overwhelmed right now.

    God is so good. SO good.

    I look at my clerkship-- and its perfect. I'm re-applying things I've been learning about since 10th grade with bajillion internships, utilizing what I wrote my law school thesis on (post conviction--ineffective assistance of counsel), serving under a really awesome judge, and surrounded by really wonderful people (the secretary and the former law clerk). I mean all over this I see the fingerprints of God and its such a blessing to know that I'm right where God wants me to be.

    Not only in my job... but also my housing. When I look back at it... this housing wasn't supposed to work out like this. I was supposed to be living somewhere else with 1 or 2 roomies... but instead I'm blessed with 3 roomies who make me laugh, comfort me, love on me, and act crazy around me. I'm so grateful for the house that I live in... and also the wonderful sisters that I get to live with... they remind me of how faithful God is everyday.

    Even in the little things... such as the fact that I had no income and i was semi-freaking out about finances... man He allowed for me to make some sort of money by selling off my old law school books and other items. Things where I wouldn't think i'd have buyers are selling like crazy. It's just awesome to see that God takes care of even our little worries too...

    I can't wait to see what else He has in store for the rest of 2008... truly. God is good.

    Dearest all MAC users:
    I need your help.
    I just got a Blackberry Curve....
    and downloaded Pocket Mac application so that I could sync my iCal with my Blackberry
    During Syncing.. there were some issues so I kept stopping in the middle of syncing.
    Next thing I know.. my ENTIRE iCal is WIPED OUT!!!!
    aka all of my appointments, meetings, dinners, lunches, work schedule, major events... GONE
    does anyone know how i can get it back?
    Luckily I backed up my calenders from iCal on June 2nd...

  • God ALWAYS provides :D

    Yes yes....
    the nightmare is over...
    I'm done with the Bar!!!!

    but really-- God provides....
    He gave be fabulous roomies who cooked and fed me, good study buddies who stuck with me throughout the crunch time and wouldn't let me stay at their house to chill haha, and just wonderful friends who prayed for me and encouraged me. On top of that, He provided me with peace and comfort through His Word, strength to get through the days, and courage/ strength during the Bar.  HE NEVER FAILS.

    Thank you guys for supporting me... jin jjahs.
    YOU are God's blessing to me :)


    ... in about 12 hours I'll be sitting at Dulles Airport with the Cambodia Team... waiting to head to Cambodia for a 3-week missions trip... how incredible :D
    God just never ceases to amaze me...

    please pray for our health, our travels, our team unity, our leaders, the crossroads ministry, and... just that we will be obedient to God's calling in every sense and give Him all the glory... :) thanks in advance!

  • Farewell...

    Dearest All,
    Notification: June 1st is my famous/ infamous "Lena drops off the face of the earth" day... I begin my bar studies on that day.

    What this means for you: (mmm I hope I still have friends after the next two months.)
    • So my facebook, xanga, StudiVZ, AIM, MSN, Gchat will be unaccessible and I will be MIA until July 30th (which is my last day of the bar exam).
    • My phone will also be shut off from Monday- Saturday... and only on for Sundays
    • Meeting up for coffee or dinner= out of the question. (sorry... its nothing personal.)
    • I will be accessible only via e-mail and if you e-mail me and its not an emergency... I will most likely not respond.
    • I will be at Bethel on Sundays + at missions meetings... shout out to Cambodia missions team hehe
    Future plans:
    • My bar exam dates are July 29th + July 30th.
    • I leave for Cambodia on July 31st or August 1st until about August 22nd
    • and then that weekend I move into Baltimore)...
    soooo ummm until like mid August I won't be available. But remember-- you still have 4 days left till my "drop dead" date.

    Reasoning: now why am I doing this? Why am I being psycho? because...
    "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men,
    since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward.
    It is the Lord Christ you are serving."

    You see-- I know that my reason/ calling to go into law and be a lawyer was not so that I could have a fancy title or say "esquire/ esquiahhhhh" after my name... but because God called me to serve His people through my legal profession. To be a voice for those who have not been heard and to mend and heal brokenness (of which there is plenty in the legal system). Most of all, to serve His city and to love on His people... so if thats the case... shouldn't I study hard to pass the bar so that I can serve His people sooner and excel at it for His namesake. So if you wanna support me, pray for me... thanks in advance.
